Last week my family was away so I brought Murphy, my own little pet therapy, to the office.
As many of you know, I’m a big proponent of pets and their ability to calm the mind and lessen the pain.
If my wife will let me, I plan to bring him back to the office now and then as he was a big hit with our Calmare patients.

“Thanks for all you do Dr. Cooney, not just for me, but for all of us. My RSD pain is still at 0, hands and feet still improving from CIPN. Did I mention I planted a garden and mowed the lawn today?”

“If you, or someone you know is experiencing pain from cancer, seriously, look into Calmare. I wouldn’t steer you the wrong way. Dr. Cooney knows what’s up! Dr Michael Cooney, you’re the main man in my book when it comes to Calmare Therapy.”

“My doctor recommended a spinal cord stimulator as a last resort to help with my CRPS pain. But I researched Calmare and decided to go to Dr. Cooney in NJ for treatment. I had nothing to lose. Ten treatments later, I am going home at a 0 on the pain scale. I am overjoyed.”

“We chose Dr. Cooney because he has successfully treated so many people with CRPS. Also, his staff was very nice and inviting and his patients I spoke to had tremendous results. It has been 5 months since my daughter’s treatment and she is still pain free, symptom free, and taking no meds.”

What a cutie! Unity Hospice know first-hand how pet therapy can heal pain among patients – there’s a level of emotional support that aids the medicinal healing. It’s wonderful to see patients benefit from this alternative treatment.
